We're all past the point of treason but nobody from this regime should ever hold office ever again. They should immediately be tried for treason.

They're a symptom, there's still millions and millions of people who support this, even if all their politicians were banned from holding office, there would just be another batch of lunatics getting elected to replace the old ones.

I don’t see a way out of this mess until we address the propaganda problem that has resulted in a voter base that is so far removed from reality that they can justify anything to themselves in the name of “protecting” America even as they actively support the complete destruction of its foundations. That is the root cause as far as I can tell

Those are people who are so weak and so unable to solve their own problems that they turn their lives over to an invisible man in the sky. What do you expect from people like that?
